I'm in Naruto, but the system says I'm in One Piece.

The Land of Wind is not like the Land of Rain.

Due to regional limitations, the development of the Rain Country has been somewhat restricted. Although its military strength is developing rapidly at present, that is only on the surface.

It can only be said that all that is outwardly glamorous is inwardly rotten; it's all just superficial glamour.

But the Land of Wind is different.

As one of the five great nations, its national strength is incomparable to that of the Land of Rain.

Despite being located in a desert region, it has developed into such a large country, which shows that it is quite extraordinary.

High in the sky, Hoshino Yu, aboard the Shinobi World-branded aircraft Raihan, was heading towards the border of the Land of Wind.

Lightning flashed and darted through the clouds at incredible speed, gradually replacing the gloomy rain that had enveloped the borders of the Rain Kingdom with a sky full of yellow sand.

The wind of the Land of Wind and the rain of the Land of Rain form two stark contrasts.

The gale whipped up fine sand and gravel, which rustled against the clouds. Even though Hoshino Yu was high in the sky, she could feel the heat and desolation of the desert below.

"Tsk, I really don't like this part of the Land of Wind."

Hoshino Yu lay on Raishan's back and tossed a piece of military ration into his mouth to chew.

Although this stuff doesn't taste very good, it's extremely effective at quickly replenishing stamina and chakra.

As Lei Shan flew rapidly, he smelled the peculiar aroma of the soldier's ration pills and asked with some curiosity:

"Yu, what have you been secretly eating behind my back again?"

"No, it's something extremely unpalatable," Hoshino Yu replied after thinking for a moment. "If I hadn't just exhausted myself, I wouldn't have taken it out to eat."

"Something that tastes awful? How awful?" Lei Shan asked, tilting his head slightly.

"Uh...it's hard to describe, but you can try it if you want to eat it."

Upon hearing this, Lei Shan decisively opened his beak.

Seeing this, Hoshino Yu took out dozens of large ration pills from his inventory and casually threw them into Raishan's mouth.

He swallowed it, and the scene that Lei Shan had expected to make him nauseous did not occur. Instead, the other party asked with some confusion:

"This stuff is interesting. I don't really taste anything, but my stamina seems to have recovered a little bit?"

Hoshino Yu scratched his head upon hearing this.

Lei Shan was too big, so it's normal that he didn't get to taste the soldier's rations. As for his stamina...

If you want Lei Shan to replenish his stamina, then the soldier's ration pill would probably have to be five meters in size to be effective.

After flying for a while longer, Hoshino Yu sensed the target's location and immediately told Raishan:

"Lightning Flash, slow down, lower your altitude, and don't alert the Sand Ninja below."

The borders of the Land of Wind are not like those of the Land of Rain. Sunagakure has been stationed in the desert for many years. Although the surveillance network is not as well-hidden as Hanzo's Rain Release, it is much denser, and the slightest carelessness will lead to discovery.

Lei Shan understood, flapped its wings and swooped down, gradually breaking through the clouds and hovering low over a desert.

"No, this is flying too low, higher, higher!" Hoshino Yu shouted.

Lei Shan understood his meaning and immediately adjusted the altitude.

Once Hoshino Yu felt the height was right, he carefully sensed the movements below.

Below, the vast expanse of yellow sand stretches endlessly, and in the distance, the outline of the Sunagakure stronghold can be vaguely seen.

Watchtowers built of rocks and yellow sand are scattered along the border, with Sand Ninjas on the towers holding ninja tools and vigilantly scanning their surroundings.

"As expected, the defenses of Sunagakure are even more stringent than those of the Land of Rain."

Hoshino Yu narrowed her eyes and fully extended her mental network, instantly covering an area of ​​dozens of miles below.

Countless chakra fluctuations from Sand Ninjas entered my senses. There were faint auras of Genin, as well as condensed chakra of Jonin. There were even a few auras that were stronger than those of ordinary Jonin, but they were still a step below the Third Hokage.

"Wait, who did I run into?"

"The Third Kazekage? Or Chiyo and the others...?"

Hoshino Yu was somewhat speechless.

I don't know if this is good luck or bad luck.

This mission leads to an encounter with Hanzo in the Land of Rain, and a direct confrontation with the Third Kazekage in the Land of Wind.

The largest chakra surge came from the core stronghold on the border.

The place was enveloped by thick sand walls, and the chakra fluctuations were steady and domineering. Hoshino Yu guessed that it was most likely the aura of the Third Kazekage.

"However, it's interesting. Since we're all here..." Hoshino Yu's lips curled up, and a hint of excitement flashed in his eyes.

Although he originally only wanted to cause some damage at the border of the Land of Wind, destroying the border supply points and intelligence outposts of Sunagakure.

But since we've already encountered the Third Kazekage, we should at least cause some trouble, so he doesn't have to search everywhere.

Just then, Rai Shan suddenly let out a low hum and approached Hoshino Yu.

Hoshino Yu frowned slightly and asked, "Ray Flash, what's wrong?"

Lei Shan said, "Aren't you going to take down their stronghold? Isn't that the one down there?"

Upon hearing this, Hoshino Yu followed Raishan's gaze and saw a Sand Ninja supply corps slowly moving in the desert below.

Leading the group were two Jonin, followed by dozens of Genin, pushing dozens of wooden carts loaded with supplies. The carts were covered with thick canvas, and the outlines of ninja tools and ration pills could be vaguely seen.

"Yes, I saw it," Hoshino Yu said softly.

In his mind's eye, the supplies included not only regular war supplies but also a large amount of gold dust, which was obviously intended to enhance the Sand Ninja's ninjutsu and repair the base's defenses.

"They're really rich! That placer must actually be real gold. If only we could take a few big bags of it..."

"Why bother writing novels? It would be much better to sell gold."

"Gold is expensive during wartime, so selling it for free is the most profitable thing to do. However, it's uncertain whether those merchants will dare to accept the Third Kazekage's gold dust."

Hoshino Yu said with a smile.

After surveying the surrounding area and quickly recording the information on the scroll, Hoshino Yu spoke again:

"Ray Flash, take care of this supply train first. Be quick, and don't alert the Third Kazekage at the core stronghold."

Destroying the Sand Village's supplies would disrupt their pre-battle plans and also test the Sand Village's strength—a win-win situation.

Lei Shan nodded, flapped its wings and swooped down, its body surrounded by pale blue lightning, and hurled it fiercely at the supply troops below.

The Sand Ninja noticed the unusual movement and quickly looked up. They saw dozens of bolts of lightning suddenly falling from the sky, and their faces turned pale.

"It's the enemy! Be on guard!" the leading Sand Village Jonin shouted sharply, quickly forming hand seals. "Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!"

A gust of wind blew from his mouth, causing a cloud of yellow sand to gather and stand firmly in front of the supply troops.

Another Jonin immediately gave the order:

"Quickly, protect the supplies and notify the core base to provide support!"

Dozens of genin quickly surrounded the wooden cart, forming hand seals in preparation for battle, but their speed was no match for the impact of dozens of bolts of lightning.

"it's useless."

Hoshino Yu chuckled softly, looking down at the Sand Ninja who were putting up a stubborn resistance, and ordered Raishin to intensify his attack.

To be honest, having the advantage of high altitude and long-range attack capabilities makes it really satisfying to dominate weaker opponents.

Dozens of bolts of lightning struck the sand walls directly. The moment the lightning struck the sand walls, the violent lightning force spread out instantly. The sand walls sizzled as they were burned by the lightning and instantly crumbled into a sky full of fine sand.

"What?!" The two Sand Ninja Jonin's expressions changed drastically.
